Question

Mr. Jones wants to buy 6 tickets to a play. Each ticket costs $10. Mr. Jones has $45 in his pocket.

How much more money does he need to buy all 6 tickets?
Plz help I am timed on this.

Answer 1

He needs $15 more

Explanation:

since each ticket costs $10 dollars, and there is 6 tickets, we need to multiply 10 x 6 to get the total cost of all tickets

10 x 6 = $60

To find how much more money he needs to buy all tickets, we need to subtract $45 from the total cost of tickets, which is $60

$60 - $45 = $15

Hope you understand this explanation!
